Backup the files in this directory for your Outlook Express emails:
 
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}\Microsoft\Outlook Express
 
And your address book is here:
 
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book
